[Bug 243682] Re: [Intrepid] Usplash Screen Corruption
Confirmed still present on Intrepid Kubuntu final, fully patched to this date (20081220). Running on two boxes, one with 1920x1200 resolution. That box continues to experience problems.

[Bug 243682] Re: [Intrepid] Usplash Screen Corruption
Fixed for my box. Here is the procedure: 1. On boot, enter the grub menu and add this to the kernel line, vga=ask, e.g: kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.27-9-generic root=UUID=61deb805-3f3b-47b3-9349-8c43ae3c3aa9 vga=ask ro quiet splash 2. You will be presented with list of available modes. Select one that is appropriate for your screen. A mode for your native resolution many not be available, e.g. I do not have a mode for 1920x1200 shown. I selected VESA mode 791 3. Continue boot; usplash was shifted, but otherwise looked ok. After boot, make sure your virtual terminals look ok (i.e. ctrl-alt-f1 and make sure the text looks good!). If not, return to step 1. 4. Run usplash -x1024 -y768. This step is probably not necessary. 5. Edit /etc/usplash.conf and set the resolution to 1024x768 (in this example) or whatever your resolution is. 6. Edit /boot/grub/menu.list, update the kernel line for your boot image to include the vga line. kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.27-9-generic root=UUID=61deb805-3f3b-47b3-9349-8c43ae3c3aa9 vga=791 ro quiet splash 7. Run update-initramfs -u 8. Reboot It appears that on some installs, usplash is configured for an unsupported vga mode. Potential steps to correct on installation: 1. Scan for available vga modes and select one that is available and appropriate [unsure of the heuristics here :( ] 2. Set resolution to mode in /etc/usplash.conf 3.

[Bug 243682] Re: [Intrepid] Usplash Screen Corruption
There has been some change in behaviour for me in Kubuntu alpha-3, now the splash screen always fails to appear, and during boot I see only the blinking _ in the upper-left corner of the screen. When booting the LiveCD it stays there for a while until normal bootup messages appears (starting with «Setting preliminary keymap» or something like that). When booting an installed system it just stops there. I assume this is due to the bootup process stopping to ask me for my LUKS passphrase, but since usplash doesn't work I don't get the prompt either, so I'm stuck. As with alpha-2 it boots up fine once I remove splash from the command line.

I have problems reliably booting Intrepid my Lenovo ThinkPad X61s too. After the messages from Grub has been printed (Starting up... \ Loading, please wait...) it will usually end up in a state where the blinking cursor is shown in the top-left corner of the screen. However, sometimes the screen is completely blank (but still lit), some other times I've seen some blue patterns along the upper edge of the screen (pic attached), sometimes most of the screen is flashing red (vid attached). If I remove «splash» from the kernel command line it will boot correctly, although there's some error messages relating to uvesafb printed before I'm asked for my passphrashe. I've attached a pic. With the usplash included on the Kubuntu Intrepid alpha-2 CD it would usually work fine (however there was some cosmetic corruption with the progress bar showing up in other parts of the screen), although I ran into the above problems (except maybe the blue patterns, not sure) from time to time. Another boot would normally correct it. However, after doing a dist-upgrade it _always_ fails.

Another thing - if I boot with quiet removed (but splash in place), it appears to get to initramfs every time. Sometimes the screen will briefly blank (flash) and it will return me to the kernel messages, hanging right after the hard drive has been discovered. I assume that it is here waiting for me to input my passphrase, and that usplash was supposed to to the prompting. This is probably the counterpart of when only the blinking cursor is shown. Sometimes it won't briefly blank, but at that moment instead go into a state where the screen is flashing with turquoise bars and solid red. I've tried inputting my passphrase blindly (when it doesn't go into flashing mode) but it doesn't continue booting - I assume usplash is taking care of keyboard input as well and that it doesn't work.

[Bug 243682] Re: [Intrepid] Usplash Screen Corruption
I get the same usplash corruption where the progress bar gets drawn multiple times on the screen during boot, but not during shut down. ** Attachment added: lspci-nnvv.txt http://launchpadlibrarian.net/16028469/lspci-nnvv.txt -- [Intrepid] Usplash Screen Corruption https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/243682 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 243682] Re: [Intrepid] Usplash Screen Corruption
Today installed Intrepid Alpha2 and I got the same on my laptop. model: Lenovo Z61m Display: 1680x1050 Videocard: ATI X1400 Connected to docking station with DVI connected to another monitor, but for now I use laptop display as primary. /etc/usplash.conf doesn't contain resolution only two comments Here problem is showed only in first two boot/reboot, in all latter restarts problem is gone, but resolution is the lowest avalible 320x240 or 640x480 I can say exactly because screen is with pretty high dpi. After installation of all available updates, some package rebuild initramfs and problem is back but again only on first reboot, in all latter it is showed correct but with the lowest resolution. -- [Intrepid] Usplash Screen Corruption https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/243682 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I must add to this, this happens on my PC all the time when it starts up and sometimes when it shuts down, in my case I see a mass of white and black.

Are you talking about the first reporter? If so, I have no idea. If you refer to my comment, I am not talking about this issue occurring in an Eee PC, but in a normal desktop. But I do see that the current topic can cause some problems and does not directly show the scope of the problem. So I am changing the topic of the bug report to something a bit better(hope the reported doesn't mind). ** Summary changed: - [Intrepid] Usplash Screen Corruption on Asus EeePC + [Intrepid] Usplash Screen Corruption ** Tags added: corruption ** Tags removed: eeepc -- [Intrepid] Usplash Screen Corruption https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/243682 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
